Artist Profile: Mousumi Paul

Mousumi Paul is a passionate and self-taught visual artist known for transforming everyday household objects into vibrant canvases of creativity. Her signature style blends traditional Bengali folk art elements, especially inspired by Potchitra (scroll painting) and Aalpana (ritual floor art), with modern-day functionality.

Working primarily with acrylic mediums, Mousumi brings life to objects like glass bottles, coasters, trays, plates, and other utilitarian items—turning them into collectible art pieces. Her artwork often features motifs of serene doll-like figures, folklore themes, nature-inspired patterns, and spiritual iconography.

She actively participates in numerous art and culture festivals, where her work receives appreciation for its authenticity and connection to Bengal’s cultural heritage. Beyond gallery spaces, Mousumi also travels to rural villages to paint murals and wall art, continuing a tradition of community storytelling through visuals.

Artwork Highlight: “Glass Bottle Doll Painting 02”

One of her standout creations, Glass Bottle Doll Painting 02, is a hand-painted 3.5-inch tall glass bottle. The piece features a serene, meditative figure of a child-like monk seated over a stylized lotus. Painted with rich, cheerful acrylic tones—predominantly in yellow, orange, and pink—the artwork radiates warmth, peace, and innocence.

This bottle is not just decorative—it is part of Mousumi’s ongoing endeavor to integrate traditional art into everyday life, encouraging people to view art as both accessible and deeply personal.
